The Problem

Stevensons is one of the UK’s largest school uniform suppliers, trusted by over 550 schools. But their digital foundations weren’t keeping up, especially during back-to-school season.

An ageing ERP and website setup led to delays, broken processes and a clunky experience for both customers and internal teams. With peak season fast approaching, Stevensons needed a complete overhaul and all by a go-live date that couldn’t slip.

The Solution

Working alongside Stevensons and Netsuite partner Catalyst, we delivered a fully integrated solution designed to perform under pressure.

Website rebuild on Laravel

A custom platform now manages school-specific product listings, uniform personalisation, and fitting bookings, all built to scale.

Custom Netsuite ERP integration

Real-time syncing of product data, customer accounts and orders ensures smooth stock and order management across systems.

Hosted on AWS

Resilient and fast, built to handle high demand without drop-offs or downtime.

Tight communication, faster delivery

With a fixed launch window, we kept delivery sharp through clear collaboration, early risk mitigation and constant coordination.

R3 was tasked with a huge piece of technical development work, but they executed it seamlessly and the results have been transformational. We have a future-proof setup and can deliver for hundreds of schools across the UK."
